ffmpeg | branch: master | Luca Barbato <lu_zero at gentoo.org> | Thu Jul 26 16:35:12 2012 -0700| [681ed0009905a088aae2a5caf2308d89aaa80562] | committer: Anton Khirnov

avf: introduce nobuffer option

Useful in cases where a significant analyzeduration is
still needed, while minimizing buffering before output.

An example is processing low-latency streams where all
media types won't necessarily come in if the
analyzeduration is small.
